Servings: 4

Difficulty: Easy

Prep Time: 5 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes | Total Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cups cremini mushrooms, sliced

1 cup trumpet mushrooms, sliced

1 cup oyster mushrooms, sliced

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon pepper

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

3/4 cup white wine

2 tablespoons butter

2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Directions:

In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced mushrooms in a single layer to the pan and sear until golden brown. It is important to lay the mushrooms in a single layer so that they don’t all steam together. Work in batches to sear the rest of the mushrooms, placing the seared mushrooms on a plate in between batches. If necessary, add more olive oil between batches.

Return all the mushrooms to the pan. Add the salt and pepper and garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the garlic has softened and begins to turn golden. Add the wine to the pan, scraping any browned bits off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Let the wine reduce by 1/3, about 3-4 minutes. Turn the heat down to medium, add the butter, and mix until incorporated. Transfer the mushrooms to individual plates or a serving plate and garnish with the chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
